By now, this term is fairly commonplace among younger generations, as technology trends exponentially grow and expand with the term progress attached.  For instance, I wrote an article in 2013 claiming Eminem was a clone, which brought with it plenty of mocking insults; now, at the end of 2022, this doesn’t seem to be that far-fetched. Why would it be
